Messa Stomp (09-09-38) - Andy Kirk

Hear the sound of the falling rain

coming down like an armageddon flame (hey!)

the shame, the ones who died without a name

Hear the dogs howlin' out of key

to a hymn called faith and misery (hey!)

and bleed, the company lost the war at day

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

this is the dawning of the rest of our lives

on holiday.

Hear the drum pounding out of time

another protestor has crossed the line (hey!)

to find, the money’s on the other side

Can i get another amen (amen!)

there’s a flag wrapped around a score of men (hey!)

a gag, a plastic bag on a monument

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

this is the dawning of the rest of our lives

on holiday.

«The representative from California has the floor»

Zeig heil to the president gasman

bombs away is your punishment

pulverize the eiffel tower

who criticize your government

bang bang goes the broken glass and

kill all the fags that don’t agree

trials by fire setting fire

is not a way that’s meant for me

just cause, just cause because we’re outlaws yeah!

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

this is the dawning of the rest of our lives

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

this is the dawning of the rest of our lives

this is our lives on holiday.
